Alley a youth about sixteen years of age, by some means unknown to his parents obtained spiriteous liquor enough to intoxicate him, and that while intoxicated at about, one or two oclock at night, got into a fuss and quarrel, and made a loud noise in the bar room of the cCapitol Hotel, and assaulted and other boy there, at the time by drawing a worthless little pistol, and snapping it at him — The boy Alley was very drunk at the, and for the assault and other breach of the peace, he was fined in the Police Court of the city of Frankfort ten dollars and again fined the sum of fifty dollars for carrying concealed a deadly weapon without lawful excuse Now in as much as said Alley has heretofore been a peacable, orderly and sober boy, and this is his first offense against the law, or good morals, and bears the character of a good boy — and has no means

of his own wherewith to satisfy said fine and costs, & in view of the fact that his father would be compelled to pay the fine and costs for his son, we would respectfully recommend unto your Excy and solicit, that said fine be remitted or so much thereof as to your Excy shall seem just and expedient In view of the premises Respectfully your obedient servants —
